The Ark…And on Earth
If a great flood is a metaphor for our fears, how can we turn fear into happiness? For our next exhibition at the Violence Intervention Program at the LAC+USC Med Center, artists will be presenting two portraits of animals they'd like to see on The Ark. The animals, of course, represent security and love. The second part of our exhibit…And On Earth will visually express solid ground representing the confidence we feel when fear is dispersed.
